Houston Requires Fencing Around Swimming Pool Area

Houston also has stipulations regarding a pool fence used for swimming pool safety.

The Houston Department of Heath and Human Services released literature to residents with the requirement that pools must have a child safety barrier spanning at least 48 inches in height with a self-closing, self-latching gate.

Bylaws such as this one highlight the importance of having a baby fence around your swimming pool area to prevent potential accidents.
